if the init.pre is never read from what you specify as --siteconfigpath,
that's a bug -- could you report it to the bugzilla?    (however I'm
pretty certain we have a test for that so that sounds odd.)

I think the issue is that init.pre isn't in the directory he's pointing to,
not that it wouldn't be read if it existed there.  ie:

spamassassin --siteconfigpath /tmp/foo

if I don't put init.pre in /tmp/foo, spamassassin isn't going to go looking
for the file in other places.
